Recess

Lyrics

I was too young to see the truth
 In my grandma's lap, I'm drowning in her perfume
 Too naive to even care
 'Bout the words she whispered while she brushed out my hair
 People gonna say
 If you need a break, someone'll take your place
 People gonna try
 To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
 (Just remember)
 Don't let them fuck you, honey, no, oh
 Don't let them try (ooh)
 Don't let them hurt you, baby
 Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"
 Sittin' in my room, looking at all I've done
 Everything I wanted has come to fruition
 I should be happy, but I can't get out my bed
 Stressin' 'bout the voices screamin' inside my head
 People gonna say
 If you need a break, someone'll take your place
 People gonna try
 To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
 (Just remember)
 Don't let them fuck you, honey, no, oh
 Don't let them try (ooh)
 Don't let them hurt you, baby
 Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"
 Where is my time?
 Gone in my mind
 Gone, I can't find
 Euphoria
 When I get upset
 I think in my head
 "I do as she says"
 People gonna say
 If you need a break, someone'll take your place
 People gonna try
 To tell you that you're fine with dollars in their eyes
 (Just remember)
 Don't let them fuck you, honey, no, oh
 Don't let them try (ooh)
 Don't let them hurt you, baby
 Just say, "Recess, I'm tired"
